Preparation and Opportunity births Success

Image
Late Stella Obasanjo, the wife of the former President of Nigeria, Olusegun Obasanjo, attended a programme close to where she obtained her Secondary School education. After the programme, while stepping out of the venue, she heard somebody shouting from behind, "Aunty Star!, Aunty Star!, Aunty Star!..........." This was the name her juniors in school used to call her while she was in Secondary School. She turned around and saw the woman calling her and beckoned on her escorts to allow her pass through. The woman informed her that she was one of her juniors while they were in school. Her Excellency was so pleased to meet her. The woman took the opportunity to plead with Stella to assist her as she was a widow and was suffering with her children. Her Excellency, being a very compassionate woman asked her to name what she wanted her to do for her. The woman replied her by saying "Anything". This question was put to her again and she repeated the same answer! So Her Exc

EVEN DOGS DON'T FORGET

Image
The late king of a certain community had ten wild dogs. He used them to torture and eat any of his servants who made a mistake. One of the servants gave an opinion which was wrong, and the king didn’t like it at all. So he ordered that the servant be thrown to the dogs. The servant said, “I served you for ten years, and you do this to me? Please give me ten days before throwing me to those dogs!” The king agreed. In those ten days, the servant went to the guard who looks after the dogs and told him he would like to serve the dogs for the next ten days. The guard was baffled but agreed, and the servant started feeding the dogs, cleaning for them, bathing them, and providing all sorts of comfort for them. When the ten days were over, the king ordered that the servant be thrown to the dogs for his punishment. When he was thrown in, we were all amazed to see the ravenous dogs only licking the feet of the servant! The king, baffled at what he was seeing, said, ”What has happened to my dogs?

HAVE GOOD OPINIONS OF YOURSELF

Image
We all compliment other people's look, outfits, cars, children, businesses, families, etc but most often we forget to neither compliment nor appreciate ourselves or things we have.  The quality of self-opinions you have about yourself would go a long way to determine the consciousness of your thoughts, words, decisions, and actions. You can't think like a slave and live as a king, just as you can't nurture poverty in your mind and live in abundance. No! Stop having negative thoughts and opinions about yourself. Negative opinions of yourself by yourself limits your abilities and inhibits you from living a productively. Think and say positive things about yourself and to yourself, and you would see them manifesting.  NOTE People would treat you the exact way you think about yourself. So you must learn to always demonstrate the best of your being both in your thoughts and in your actions. Credit to: Gbenga Emiloju (DMPII) I am Daniel Oluwayiose Feeding the MIND...t

5 Ways to Make Yourself Mentally Stronger This Year

Image
New Year’s resolutions aren’t particularly effective–in fact, most people give them up by mid-January. The reason resolutions fail is because people set big goals to change their lives without working on the mental strength they’ll need to succeed. So this year, as the resolution you set on December 31 falls by the wayside, don’t be too hard on yourself. Instead, take a step back and commit to building the mental muscle you need to achieve your goals. Here are five things you can start doing now to make yourself mentally stronger this year: 1. Practice labeling your emotions. Putting a name to your feelings decreases their intensity. So whether you’re feeling sad, anxious, angry, or scared, acknowledge it–at least to yourself. Also, pay attention to the way those emotions can affect your choices. When you’re feeling anxious you may be less inclined to take risks. When you’re excited you may be more impulsive. Increasing your awareness of your emotions can de

PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT

Be it in our work life or personal life, it doesn’t matter how many years pass us by – we can always become a better version of ourselves. Self improvement (also known as personal development) isn’t just about improving our chances of getting a good job or relationship – it’s all about learning about our own strengths and weaknesses: In doing this, we not only become a better person, but a happier person as well. And who doesn’t want to be happy…? There are so many different aspects when it comes to the subject of bettering ourselves. Perhaps you’ve got a bad habit that you know you have to break. What about books and literature that will help you towards the goal of being the best you possible? And how on earth do you change negative aspects in your life for those that are more positive? We’re passionate about assisting people when it comes to personal development. Some of the most sought after subjects people want to learn include those just mention
